Title: Robust Probabilistic Matching of Company Names
Version: 0.2.0

Description: A pipeline for matching messy company name strings against
        a clean dictionary (e.g., 'Orbis'). Implements a cascading
        strategy: Exact -> Fuzzy ('zoomerjoin') -> 'FTS5' ('SQLite') ->
        Rarity Weighted. Name normalization covers German, French,
        Italian and English legal forms and conventions, which suits
        multilingual registers such as the Swiss one. Normalization
        discards detail, so several dictionary entries can collapse
        onto one string; these groups are matched once and a crosswalk
        back to every original entry is retained. References: Beniamino
